Fall 2017 The Annual Report on Giving

Gary Mackiewicz on teaching language past and present

“A Mission of Love.”

In his most famous work, “The City of God,” St. Augustine – converted sinner and bishop of Hippo – said that a nation should be defined as “a multitude of rational beings in common agreement as to the objects of their love.”

What we value most highly – what we collectively love most – is thus the central test of this social contract.

As I wrote to you recently, our Board of Trustees recently restated Austin Prep’s Mission in a more compelling way. It reads:

Our mission is to inspire hearts to unite, minds to inquire, and hands to serve.

Our mission is to inspire hearts to unite, minds to inquire, and hands to serve.

– Austin Prep’s Mission

We live in a time of polarizing social division in our nation. Thankfully, an overarching goal at Austin Prep is to educate bridge builders. During a period when people are moving apart, our aim is to train leaders who can help others collaborate and move forward.

We do this in many ways.

First, as a Catholic school, we develop habits based on love for others. From middle school on, we cultivate a spirit of servant-leadership.

Second, we provide a vigorous academic curriculum that tests students to discover new ideas with curiosity and confidence. At Austin Prep we are not afraid of change. We embrace it. Change generates opportunity and change inspires growth.

Third, we expand our educational experience beyond academics, athletics and the arts. We provide opportunities to be challenged outside of the class, even outside of the school, in internships, international travel, Christian service, and hands-on learning programs.

All these facets coalesce in a purposeful way so that Austin Prep students and alumni, armed with clear values and life skills, can really make a difference in the world.

Many schools hope for similar results. At Austin Prep, we’re happy to be that inspiration.

Sincerely,

James Hickey, Ph.D. P’22.

Headmaster

Smile, Smile, Smile.

There were plenty of reasons for Austin Prep’s 131 graduates to grin on commencement day, with every one accepted to college and having been awarded some $8 million dollars in scholarships.

The future is indeed bright.

But perhaps class of 2017 valedictorian Timothy Cray summed it up best with his optimistic message.

Looking to the years ahead, which will certainly be filled with dramatic changes globally and advances in technology, “in spite of all of this intrigue and uncertainty, I can guarantee one constant,” he said. “If you are a kind, charismatic, caring person, you will do well for yourself.

“You will never ‘out compute’ or ‘out produce’ a robot, but you will always ‘out smile’ it.

“As a class, however, I think we also have a special responsibility to go beyond simply doing well for ourselves.”

“We are a class noted for our benevolence and generosity-we are extraordinarily blessed. With this blessing comes a solemn responsibility, to humbly serve others and God, and I have no doubt that we are superbly well fitted to do this.”

Salutatorian Jasmine Joseph echoed these feelings, pointing to the class sense of community “Throughout our whole time here. Whether through clubs, sports or just encouragement in the halls, we could not have done it without each other.”

The general spirit of optimism continued as Mr. Rich Meelia ’67 former CEO of Covidien, a $11 billion global healthcare products company, addressed the group 50 years after his own graduation.

“You will never ‘out compute’ or ‘out produce’ a robot, but you will always ‘out smile’ it.

– Timothy Gray, 2017 Valedictorian

“It is important to adapt to change, embrace leadership and always be aware of your integrity,” Meelia said.

“I am very confident that each of you lives with integrity. As you advance through your life, always keep integrity front and center.”

These thoughts were also echoed in remarks from Headmaster Dr. James Hickey, who reminded students “Today, you begin your journey beyond this campus in a journey of faith, a journey in the footsteps of St. Augustine. Be confident as you explore the world. You have a received a solid foundation in your Austin Prep education. You know how to be selfless, how to be determined, and how to persevere. Your Austin Prep education has prepared you for what life has waiting for you.”

Always have confidence. And integrity. And a smile. Great advice to begin the next phase of life’s journey.

Just Do It.

Experiential learning is more than fun, it’s changing everything.

A math-loving middle-schooler learns to keep the student council books and discovers a talent for accounting.

A student journalist turns out to be a much better — and funnier — writer than she ever imagined.

A senior news show producer learns how to use professional editing tools and wows prospective colleges.

In some ways it’s new, in others it’s as old as humankind. It’s predicated on the benefits of stepping out of the classroom and testing your knowledge in the real world.

Experiential learning is not a substitute for traditional education; it’s a complementary approach to learning that’s almost unlimited when used with creativity.

Assistant Headmaster & Head of Upper School Sean Brennan described how Austin’s curriculum is evolving to prepare kids for a new generation of challenges, including globalization, multiculturalism and constant, technology-driven disruption.

“The emphasis is moving from the acquisition of knowledge to its application,” he said. “It’s not what you know anymore, it’s what you can do with what you know.”

When asked how experiential learning and traditional education are melded at Austin Prep, Sean’s answer was emphatic. “You get the knowledge from books and lectures,” he said. “But you master it through experience.”

Failing forward

Learning from actual experience means learning to value failure in ways that differ dramatically from what you might expect in a rigorous academic environment like Austin’s. Indeed, students are coming to understand that even repeated failure is nothing to get upset about.

In principle, experiential learning consists of attempting a real world action, taking note of your results, thinking creatively about how to get better results, and then trying again. Edison failed at least a thousand times while inventing the first light bulb. In his view, however, there were no failures, just a single successful process with a thousand steps.

“Experiential learning develops practical problem-solving skills,” Sean believes. “But it also strengthens tolerance for risk and frustration. Students become better at collaboration, critical thinking, and the self-directed pursuit of a goal.”

Moving out of the students’ comfort zone can also accelerate learning because they must tap into aspects of themselves they don’t typically access at school. In this kind of environment, even endless failure can boost self-confidence.

Mike O’Brien, Austin’s Director of Admissions, is impressed by the power of learning experiences to engage and motivate students. “Our student summit meetings used to be sleepy events,” he observed. “But now that the kids are running them, they are what they should have been all along: energetic, entertaining, and productive.”

It’s no surprise to him that students find any form of doing — presentations, fieldwork, group projects — preferable to lectures, memorization, etc. Mike was an advocate of experiential learning long before he came to Austin and tells a funny story about one of his first efforts.

“I was teaching a geography class,” he said, “and decided to ask my students to go through their families’ trash cans and identify what was there, where it came from, and what they could deduce from their findings.” The Geography of Garbage isn’t part of the standard geography curriculum, but he knew right away that he’d come up with a winning assignment.

Mike also noticed that taking the experiential approach enables teachers to personalize the curriculum in meaningful ways. “If I explained a literary concept to a class and asked them to write an essay on it, I’d get 15 copies of the same essay back the next day. But, if I asked them to relate that concept to a personal event in their lives, I’d receive 15 original essays. And I can guarantee you the amount of effort expended on each would be greater.”

Students in Action

Cosmo Siano ’23 doesn’t mind getting his hands dirty, so his month-long experience as an archeologist suited him fine. The assignment had two parts. In the first, he and three team members used their knowledge of Latin and Roman history to create artifacts from an agricultural estate near Pompeii. They then buried them for a second team to find, recover, and analyze. Next, it was Cosmo’s turn to conduct an excavation. “We marked off the site with ropes and recovered artifacts that included coins, a chest, and a column. Then we cataloged our finds, plotted the locations on a grid, and deduced that they had come from another Roman villa.”

“It’s not what you know anymore, it’s what you can do with what you know.”

Students in one of Natalie Petrillo’s math classes are testing their grasp of linear equations by designing a miniature golf course.

Austin’s environmental science classes join the arborists at the Harvard Forest every September as part of an extended effort to track changes in the world’s wooded areas. The students measure trees, calculate annual growth, and determine the presence of wildlife and invasive species. The data they gather helps ecologists model the ways in which the earth’s forestland is evolving.

Tanush Mittal ’22 loves math and his experiences as Student Council Secretary of the Treasury have made him adept at using it for purposes of financial management. He has already mastered everything from classifying income and preparing expense reports to setting up budgets and tracking revenue.

A final example of experiential learning at Austin is the Student Ambassador Program overseen by Mike.

“This is actually leadership training,” Mike said. “Participants learn to conduct effective tours and interact with a variety of visitors. Naturally, many are prospective Austin families, so it’s important that ambassadors are able to impart a clear idea of what makes this school special.

“We also teach the ambassadors how to follow-up effectively with visitors after the tour, to take control of the relationship. Many people considering our school have told us how impressive it is to be contacted by an articulate student.”

The AP Ambassador Program: “This

is actually leadership

training.”

Ultimately, experiential learning is just one aspect of a revolution in teaching going on right now at Austin Prep. As Dr. Hickey writes elsewhere in this issue: “We provide opportunities to be challenged outside of the class, even outside of the school, in internships, international travel, Christian service, and hands-on learning programs.”

See you at the new miniature golf course.

Some of us remember when a French classroom might feature a few dog-eared copies of Paris Match and a map of the country’s wine regions.

Gary Mackiewicz remembers. As a teacher at Austin Prep for over forty years, he recalls a time when an out-of-date French newspaper or a TV show on VHS were as close to France as most kids could get.

“In those days, we studied the language,” Gary says. “Today, we live it.”

He’s not just referring to the variety of French-language content available on-demand, although that’s indispensable in creating the immersive environment needed to attain real fluency in a foreign language. Rather, he values having the ability to show his students significant global events as the French are seeing them, online, in real time.

“What’s the best way to prepare kids to succeed in a globalized world? Gary asks. Give them a multicultural perspective. How do you develop the capacity for critical thinking? By examining issues from different points of view. How do you strengthen your own culture? By enriching it with what you acquire from others. Our students are learning to navigate cultural differences in very practical ways.”

Gary is impatient with the idea that learning French is…passé. “It’s spoken in 75 countries on five continents,” he says. “As a world language, French is second only to English.” He also points out that Quebec is close by and that Canada is our #1 trading partner. And that at least 50% of English is derived from French.

“And that brings us to Caritas,” he says. “I believe all kids who study with me realize, whether they are brilliant students or not, that I care about them as people and want them to do well. The whole class cares about them. We’re a family. That can be hard to understand if you haven’t had the Austin experience.”

he adds with a laugh, “French is a more fertile field for that kind of conversation than chemistry.”

When asked how Augustine’s Veritas, Unitas, Caritas philosophy applies to his French classes, Gary has a thoughtful answer.

“This life preparing, spiritual and academic search for truth which I was just describing is Veritas, of course. Unitas refers generally to the Austin community and specifically to the fact that I am often a student’s French teacher throughout his or her career at the school. Learning French is a mutual effort between us over four years or more.

What will he do if he ever retires?

“Read the books I’ve been saving up,” he says. “As you’d imagine, a lot of them are cookbooks.”

Still Feelin’ Groovy THE CLASS OF ‘67

Viet Nam. Inner-city riots. The early days of feminism. Political protests. Sex, drugs and rock ‘n’ roll.

The late ’60s were indeed a period of social upheaval and change.

Against this background the Class of 1967 entered Austin Prep when it was still a new school for boys primarily taught by a community of Augustinian priests and brothers.

One popular hit song of the day urged the young generation to “Slow down, you move too fast, you’ve got to make the morning last, looking for fun and feelin’ groovy.”*

While it may have sounded like an attractive offer then, 50 years later the ‘67s never were distracted or slowed down, and wrote a record of noteworthy contributions to their state, to their professions and to their school.

Here are three members of that group who embody lives of service and personal journeys that are very groovy indeed.

Rhodes Scholar to Senate President

Tom Birmingham made his way to Reading every day from Chelsea.

A football and baseball player, he excelled in the classroom and remembers the discipline and hard work demanded by the faculty.

“It was liberal arts based on values and ideals,” he recalled recently.

Tom recalls his biology teacher Fr. Art Johnson in particular who made sure students came away from Austin with a clear appreciation of “the true, the good and the beautiful.”

After Austin Tom spent a PG year at Philips Exeter enhancing a secondary school education that he says prepared him well for a “world class education.”

He combined law with public service; from local school board to the state legislature, then serving as president of the Massachusetts Senate, Tom authored programs that elevated public education throughout the Commonwealth.

He attributes his lifelong commitment to a critical lesson learned from St. Augustine. Tolle Lege. Take up and read.

CEO to Philanthropist

Rich Meelia recalls working very hard at Austin.

But on closer inspection, hard work seems to be the common theme in his life.

A varsity basketball player at Austin and later at St. Anselm’s, Rich recalls a class of less than 100 students and a dedicated faculty.

There were no short cuts, and expectations and accountability were drilled into the students.

Even in spring semester of senior year, a physics teacher refused to clear Rich for baseball season due to a low grade despite the hard work. It was a valuable lesson and one he never forgot.

Today he counts integrity and honesty as the keys to success –as he reminded the audience in June at the 2017 Austin Prep graduation 50 years after his own.

Rich was chosen to deliver the commencement address in honor of his service and generosity to his alma mater.

After earning an MBA at Boston College, Rich went on to an extraordinarily successful career in the medical supply business, culminating as Chairman and CEO of Covidien, now part of Medtronic. He was a Trustee at Austin Prep and now serves on some six boards, both for and non-profit.

Years from now, whether celebrating Mass or shooting hoops in Meelia Hall, students will be following in the steps of an Austin Journey that started more than half a century ago.

(Continued on the next page.)

Hockey Player to School Savior

When Paul McLaughlin first entered Austin Prep he knew he loved playing hockey. Years later he would say he learned to love Austin too.

Studying pre-med at Boston College, Paul discovered that his journey would be winding and non-traditional. Instead of training to be a physician, he became a doctor of chiropractic and embarked on a career that paralleled breakthroughs in holistic medicine and non-western techniques like acupuncture.

He attributes this curiosity and willingness to “take the road less travelled” to his Austin Prep education.

While at BC he also got disturbing news that the Augustinians were considering closing Austin due to financial challenges.

Quickly embarking on a one young alumnus PR campaign, he arranged local TV interviews and news stories about his school’s possible demise.

He even persuaded his father, a successful Boston banker to speak with the order.

In exchange for his father serving on the board, a post Paul later also filled, the Augustinians changed their minds. And the rest has been history.

Today a prize goes to a graduating senior each year in honor of his parents: The Charles & Helen McLaughlin Medal for Leadership and Determination to Excel. Recognizing that academic standing is very important, this award also recognizes that the recipient has shown and accepted leadership responsibilities. In addition, she or he has exhibited a determination to excel in whatever experience she or he undertakes. It is the highest honor presented to an Austin Prep student.

One might argue that Paul, or Rich, or Tom or others in the Class of ’67 each could have earned that Medal in their day, or days after.

And in the end they also lived up to the final line, and theme of that song.

“Life I love you. All is groovy.”

Class Notes

Mike O’Malley ‘66 and Jim Maguire ‘66 Mike and I were in San Diego this past June and got a photo in front of my Vietnam Squadron A-4. VA-23 onboard the USS Oriskany in Midway CV Museum in San Diego. Mike has an AP hat on and I’m in my Navy Hat. Say hi to everyone. - Jim

David Cormier ’67 writes that he “just re tired down here in Punta Gorda, Florida. We just got back from a tour of China. We even got in a day at Shanghai Disney. I have been married 43 years with eight grandchildren. I haven’t been back to Austin since before I graduated as I missed graduated ceremonies to attend the Indy 500.”

Allen Emmons ’67 reports “I just retired from teaching 45 years at Bishop Egan and Conwell-Egan Catholic High School in Fairless Hills, PA. I hope to travel with my new trailer. Sorry to have missed the reunion! Hi to all and tell Joe Drotter - great picture!”

John Mullarkey ’70 says “Hi everybody! Yes, I am still doing the Olympic sport of fencing as a coach and club owner. I don’t know how many of you remember in senior year when I competed in the World Championships in Madrid, Spain and made top 24. Do you remember when I started a fencing club and we had to fence in the then library? Those were the days!”

Ashley Endicott ’06 married Greg McCarthy on July 28th at the Castle Hill Inn in Newport, RI. There were more than 35 Austin Prep alumni in attendance – and they brought along the school banner for a group photo! The photos are compliments of Joey Carregal ’05, who attended the wedding. Joey is also a new Trustee at Austin.

Dr. David Grams ’10 graduated at the top of his class from Physical Therapy School in an accelerated program, becoming the youngest and first person to attain this accomplishment through MCPHS University. He has trained under the former Red Sox physical therapist, has worked with professional athletes, and is now on pace to become a Fellow of the American Association of Orthopedic Manual Physical Therapists. Dr. Grams has been accepted to Evidence in Motion’s Manual Therapy Certification program with the intent to pursue Fellowship upon completion. He also has completed the Certification in Dry Needling through American Academy of Manipulative Therapy.

Lauren LaMonica ’14 reports “I will be entering my last year of undergraduate studies at Yale University pursuing a bachelor of science degree in molecular, cellular, and developmental biology. I am also in an accelerated master’s program at the Yale School of Public Health and will be continuing at Yale during my fifth year to earn a Master of Public Health in chronic disease epidemiology. I hope to pursue a degree in medicine after my time at Yale, but cannot wait to see what the field of public health holds.”

Uniting Hearts Inquiring Minds Serving Hands

Gifts that Give Back

2016-2017

Each year, we have the opportunity to advance the noble mission of Austin Prep. Our tradition of educational excellence and our future of endless educational possibilities drive our priorities. With higher and higher levels of support, the multitude of opportunities for our students and teachers are limitless. We make a difference by working together.

All gifts to the Annual Fund, regardless of amount, make a difference.

The Austin Prep Annual Fund Tradition

Most independent schools rely upon additional revenue to cover the costs of delivering an outstanding educational experience, and Austin Prep is no exception. Offering a dynamic learning environment staffed by the best-trained, dedicated and experienced faculty requires resources beyond tuition.

Annual Fund and Mission

Our mission is to inspire hearts to unite, minds to inquire and hands to serve. This is done through collaboration, creativity and character development and by offering students an active, challenging learning environment through a variety of programs.

Because of our Annual Fund, we are able to support our mission and advance excellence!

Annual Fund dollars at work 2016-2017

Experiential Learning: Field trips to outdoor centers, science labs, historic sites, and live performances make learning come alive and enhance learning experiences.

Course Expansion: The popularity of our robotics course called for additional equipment purchases - including two “robot brains” and accompanying accessories.

Faculty Summer Sabbaticals: Four faculty members were awarded Summer Sabbatical grants and brought those new techniques, ideas and inspiration back into their classrooms. Additionally, each year we send teachers and administrators to cutting edge conferences to further develop best practices in the classroom and those associated with co-curricular activities.

Instructional & Rehearsal Pianos: The Department of Art & Design was able to create a Keyboard Lab and purchase nearly two dozen rehearsal pianos for a new music course.

Athletics: Nearly every varsity team advanced to the post-season last year and 11 of our teams won Catholic Central League Championships. As teams qualify for any level of the regional and state tournaments, expenses increase: additional bus travel, officials, off-campus facility rentals (rinks, pools, baseball field), and equipment. The Annual Fund supports student success!

Established by the Sullivan Family and the Class of 1975 and named in memory of Paul H. Sullivan ’75, who will be remembered as a loving and caring husband, father and friend. A longtime Boston media personality, Paul was both the class clown and Class President during his days at Austin. The scholarship will recognize a freshman (ninth grade) student of Austin Preparatory School who has demonstrated academic merit and financial need, and who has an eagerness to learn, and to participate in activities such as class leadership and/or journalism/writing.

William H. Turner Scholarship Award

This award has been established by Mrs. Lillian Turner and her family in honor of her husband, Mr. William H. Turner. Mr. Turner and his wife saw four sons graduate from Austin Prep. He nurtured family life by co-creating a loving and supportive environment. He fostered academics, religion, dignity, service, athletics and good moral character. This award recognizes a deserving current student who shows strong academic discipline and demonstrates a good work ethic.

The Barbara Zarella Memorial Scholarship

Established in loving memory of his mother by Joseph Zarella ’77 to honor the role every mother has in her child’s successful completion of high school. The award is presented to a senior with four years of perfect attendance at Austin.

30th Annual Golf Tournament

The 30th Annual Austin Open Golf Tournament on May 22, 2017 at Indian Ridge Country Club in Andover, MA, was an overwhelming success, raising $65,000 - the highest in a number of years. Proceeds support the transformation of the David Nelson ’81 Weight Room into the David Nelson ’81 Fitness Center (located in Meelia Hall). Golfers included parents and alumni, who enjoyed an afternoon of golf before the evening festivities began. Thank you to all our golfers, sponsors, auction item donors, and raffle prize donors!
